• Packaging Size: 25kg / 50kg bags

• Shelf Life: Indefinite if stored dry

Benefits:

1. Reduces soil acidity and improves soil health
2. Enhances fertilizer and nutrient utilization
3. Strengthens plant roots and increases yield
4. Encourages beneficial soil microorganism activity
5. Cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution

How to Use:

1. Conduct a soil pH test to determine lime requirements.
2. Evenly apply Agric Lime across the field or garden using a spreader or manually.
3. Incorporate into the topsoil (10–20 cm deep) using a hoe or tiller.
4. Apply at least 2–4 weeks before planting for best results.

Application:
